Tissue paper: With the help of CMP, brightness, softness, and volume of the tissue paper can be optimized.

Coated board: The special pulp improves volume and strength and enables savings in the middle and top layers.

Printing and writing paper: Thanks to high brightness and fineness of the poplar fibers, a very smooth surface is achieved. For bulky paper, up to 70% CMP can be used.

Saturated base paper: Sicem Saga produces pulps with an optimal ratio between volume, mechanical properties, and high absorbency.

Italian Poplar Wood as Raw Material for Sicem Saga's Chemi-mechanical Pulp

For CMP production, Sicem Saga mainly uses poplar wood from Italian plantations and sawmill waste. Italy is known for growing first-class, fast-growing poplars. Additionally, the company uses so-called post-consumer wood from recycled pallets and packaging. Suppliers must certify the origin of the wood and comply with legal requirements. This way, Sicem Saga ensures not to source wood from controversial sources.

Patented Technology for Customized Pulp

Sicem Saga relies on self-developed, patented processes to optimize pulp quality. An innovative impregnation system improves wood pulping. The flexible technology makes it possible to adapt the pulp properties to individual requirements and vary brightness and mechanical parameters. This allows paper manufacturers to optimally match the pulp to their products.
